Celina Liebmann maybe. Assessed 5 average? Know original plans changed

Thought she was on an assessed 4 ?

Apparently on a 4 point assessed average and imo a good prospect looked very assured earlier on at northside on borrowed machinery,  a better signing than that Duffer Poole have signed, and will be an asset after 6 home 6 away meetings

She is yeah, just assumed before that article was posted she would be 5 with riding in U24 Ekstraliga.

Leaves 13.48 for last 2 riders.

The bonus with signing assessed riders is that they can’t dip below that figure. So you won’t get a situation we were in last year with Harry McGurk and Crang where they can’t be replaced.

Not that I think any of the 3 assessed riders will fail

Really exciting side being put together, If Cookie gets his mojo back and the final two signings are good then the Comets will be the dark horses in 2024.

All three assessed riders should improve GSA's.

First women in championship speedway! She looked quick on her last visit to NS.

Team coming on great, some new faces to watch too!

Another great signing, a big Comets welcome to Celina, the team is really taking shape nicely with 13.48 to go for the remaining 2 riders I think this team will look very solid with every rider capable of increasing their average. Exciting season ahead for the Comets

so far i agree regarding increasing averages 

think sam will take time to settle at this level but think he will improve over season 

and also looking like celina will be at reserve unless we go for higher end ht leader and a lower average reserve

As I understand it I think Katie will also be Redcar’s  official no 8 for 2024

Brilliant move by Workington - I’ll definitely be making an effort to get my little girl along to see her ride. Excellent stuff.

Hats off and respect to Workington. 

Building a cosmopolitan and entertaining team. 

Celina could gain massive Main Stream Media interest. 

100% clear though she is worth a place on merit. To be fair she is half a lap better than any current British girl
